Cyberbullying

Children often used to face the terror of what often seemed like the playground bully, but now that threat has been bumped into the 20th century and has presented a whole new area of bullying known as "cyberbullying". The New York Times has written an article specifically on this topic, and has left parents to wonder, "is my child safe from this difficult form of bullying?" Often, parents are lost as to how they can solve this problem of bullying, because they do not know of the many social networking sites that their child has access too. So this needs to be a eye-opener for parents everywhere to be involved in their child's lives. Know what your children are doing, and be aware of the challenges that they are facing regardless of the their form, real or thechnological.
